Chapter one – Before the Effect

(A/n: Just to let ya know, everything in this story that is like this is memories/ flash-backs or thoughts!)

'Otokooya…' Chihiro heard Kaji whimper '…Hahaoya...'

'Gomen, kid… you're parents have died… We need to leave Kaze and Kaji in your care until we can find someone else for them.'

Chihiro looked over to Kaze and Kaji they were on a set and were balling their eyes out sniffling every now and then. Chihiro nodded and bowed then the man went over the Kaze and Kaji bowed to them and left

'Kaze, Kaji…'

'C-Chi…'

'Come on, let's go home.'

----

Two years have passed since then, Chihiro found out that Kaze and Kaji weren't going to be removed from her care, the children were afraid that they were, for some reason. They had also realized that whoever killed the parents were after them too. What had they done wrong? Kaze and Kaji never left the house unless Chihiro was with them, Chihiro who was nineteen had her days full, only getting jobs between the times of Kaze's and Kaji's school times and didn't get much for it, they didn't live in mounds and mounds of money, but just enough. Kaze and Kaji knew they couldn't have whatever their class mates have and whenever someone asked them why they didn't have what they had they'd just retort back with a "least I'm alive!" For a nineteen year old, Chihiro was still a kid in many ways, always having her hair up with a purple hair tie, with one green ribbon attached to it, Kaze and Kaji were fascinated by it, they asked to wear it, but Chihiro wouldn't let them saying it was something dear to her, they didn't understand so they let it pas but they were still fascinated by it.

'Hey guys! Why don't we go out?'

'H-a-i!' Kaze and Kaji both screamed and they ran passed Chihiro

'Hey! You little cheaters! Get back here!'

'Nu-uh! Not on your life Chi!'

'Ka-a-ji!' Chihiro screamed as she caught her

'H-a-i?'

'Where's Kaze?'

Kaji shrugged and Chihiro rolled her eyes

'Kids…. Well! Go find her!'

'Yes ma'am!' Kaji said while saluting her then ran off.

Chihiro sighed

C-h-i! Found h-e-r!' Kaji's voice sounded far off

'Let me go!'

Chihiro walked the way the voices were coming.

Chihiro looked at the two kids rolling on the floor trying to get at each others throats

'Hey!'

The two kids got up immediately and bowed

'Gomen nasi Chi.'

'Yea you better be!'

'G-o-m-e-n!' they both yelped out

'Gah! Go outside and play-'

'But you said-'

'Race ya!' Chihiro said as she was half way down they hall

'H-E-Y-Y!' they both screamed at her as she rounded a bend and down the stairs, they started to run after her.

They were all in a car suddenly when there was a light covering everything she saw then darkness swallowed her vision up.

(A/n: I'm sorry I couldn't keep going, I would have let to much get out, ah! I've let out so many things which will spoil the story line! Darn it, oh wells, you properly have no idea what the hell I'm going on about, which is GOOD! Anyways, review! And the next chap will be up!)

(A/n: I'd do a next chap preview-y thing-y, but yeah, it would go out the window with spoilers, so sit tight and wait for more people to review. I would like more then four to review!)
